He's preflop call of your re-raise was stupid, but if you got your chips in on the turn you surely got played. You were way behind. It's silly to risk your whole game on the first hand on only a pair on the turn. No worries if you get it all in pre with KK - but on the turn on a board like that, there's NO WAY I'd think I'm ahead if someones willing to stack off. I'd prob guess a set of 8 or something tbh.

Posted by $k: im in the 200k right now on ap and this was the first hand i get
so everyone is on 3k with 10/20 blinds he makes it 100 to play i make it 500 and he calls all in on turn and this is hot it happens
I cannot believe he called your reraise to 500 from 1spot after utg especially with it being the 1st hand with 35,must have thought he was going to outplay you,he got what he deserved

I'm sorry that you are busted that early... You had nice pile of chips when I visited you... Maybe you should play tighter. You didnt answer me, directly or trough satelite (which one)?

Very ugly played by the 53s but i agree with Jessy, you had to let it go on the turn (dunno how it was postflop played), too early to risk ur stack in a tourney like this.

Some people will call almost any two cards early in a tournament looking for a double-up. When I play freerolls I play the early stages looking to double-up quickly, in order to have a shot at going deep and finishing in the money, or get busted and play some other tourney or cash game, but usually by pushing all in with AQ-TT or better. This was different as you were in a big$ MTT. Some definitely play any two cards and this can be a killer, as was almost your case - very hard to spot. I always enjoy when a good hand like KK is outflopped by trash, and then catches up by the turn or river. Better luck next time!
